Last summer me and a couple of my friends took some time off and went to the beautiful and famous city, New York City. The weather was a bit crazy coming in on our flight. It was raining and there was a lot of turbulence. We finally landed and took a cab to where we were staying. We stayed in the Marriott in downtown Manhattan and our room was gorgeous. We had a great window view of the city on what seemed like the highest floor in the hotel. We all did our thing and went to bed. The next morning we took a helicopter ride and saw the whole city from a birds eye view. It was my first time in a helicopter so I was a bit nervous. Everything went just fine and it was great to see the city as a whole. Next we went to eat at the Peking Duck House. This was my first time trying duck, too. It’s kind of oily but really tasty nonetheless! We spent the rest of our days mostly shopping and sightseeing. We even got to go to the Alex Grey art museum, one of the coolest art museums in NYC in my opinion. His art work is so stunning and beautiful. Overall, I think our trip to New York City was an exciting (and expensive) one. I highly recommend visiting there at least once in your lifetime.
